I’ve been someone who’s loved art and media my whole life. Shows, films, contemporary art, niche art, video games, and all that kinda jazz. But recently I’ve just started getting into reading, and I honestly can’t believe how much I’ve been missing out on.
It kinda started after I feel in love with Terry Gilliam’s “fear & loathing” movie. I watched and read a ton about Hunter S. Thompson, so I finally decided to get a copy of fear and loathing and just actually sit down and read it. Last time I read a book was probably 8 years ago(I’m 22 atm), and I was expecting to just put it down at some point and never pick it up again. But I actually finished it and I was presently surprised. Now I have about 40 books and counting lol.
Books from William Gibson, J.R.R Tolkien, Harlan Ellison, Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Wolfe, jack Kerouac. So many authors and stories I really wish I knew about sooner.
But this subreddit in particular really got me into a lot of different books & authors that I’m reading today, so I just wanted to say to everyone on here: thank you 🙂
